Just as Well continues to improve and could easily be 20-1.
I agree about the 2, its a really good story.

Here is a link to the pre-entry PPs.

I'm about the 947th person you should ask about European racing but I know some here have made remarks about Cima de Triomphe. The race Gloria de Campeao won in Singapore is also very, very good.

Cima De Triomphe - good, the Eclipse in which he was 4th is probably the best race run anywhere on earth this year. Trip is fine, ground will be fine.

Eclipse run - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H7Ur9CVtQOA

Gloria De Campeao - Decent horse who seemed to take a huge step up when beating an unlucky Presvis in Singapore. He seemed to get the run of the race there sitting just off the pace..

Stostfold - An improving 6yo, only a length behind Cima De Triomphe in a G3 at Sandown in May and since then won a G3 in France. Could be the value play..

will have more once i have a stronger look at the form

Take this with a grain of salt, as last year Winchester had no chance at all, only to see this bozo put $50WP on the f'n horse

I do know that Mad About You will explode going back up to 10f. Weld had surprised me big time with his campaigning of her this year, but she is sitting on a huge race..

she hasnt been doing that well over here this year. She was G1 placed last year over 8 and 10 last year, but is only 1 for 5, all in G3 races this year over 7f or a mile in terrible ground losing to horrible horses.

Good time to do it, he hasn't been close to winning a race since.

Brock is, of course, awesome, and I'll have some other comments for you later this week after I talk to some of the Euros at Arlington.

First impressions I've heard from them is that Cima and Gloria are both big players.....god, this could go so many ways. Should be a great race.

Just a note Sea the Stars is probably the top turf horse in Europe right now, so a 4th though not impressive on paper was in truth impressive given who the 1st, 2nd and 3rd place finishers the Coral Eclispe yielded this yr.
